Horn No K Please – A Huge success
Honk!Honk!a familiar irritating sound which we annoys us day in and day out.As you know Horn No K Please was a public art show by the Drama pod of Inventure Academy which was trying to spread the message that we shouldn’t honk unnecessarily.Can this little effort make a difference to Namma Bengalooru's noise pollution?
The bus buzzzzzzzzzzzzzed with excitement as we left Inventure campus.
The show was at a traffic junction near Cubbon Park.We(Media Pod) have been watching the Drama pod kids ebb with excitement for a long, long time and here was the proof before our eyes. The first time they performed it, they did well but once they started doing it again they did excelled it. Rather do I say, they got a hang of it!!
There did have minor issues with some of the props which broke, but the student volunteers and teachers fixed them in a magical jiffy. The bystanders brimmed with curiosity and were awestruck at the message and dramatic delivery. The traffic police of Namma Bengaluru proved that they are the best and helped us to avoid accidents and guided us through out. What more do we need, some of our parents had dropped in and supported us through out our effort.
My friend, Roshini said that she was feeling really, really, really excited and the show went on quite well. Another participant, Deeksha said that this was a wonderful idea. The teachers did a lot of hard work and so did the students. After the show our art teacher, Poornima Ma’am took us for a treat at Corner House Ice Cream. (Thanks ma’am!!!)
The Drama Pod did a GREAT JOB!!!!(Hey!! we do have some great photos too.. wait and watch)
Now,can you come up with some interesting ideas to create public awareness???

Quenching The Thirst of Minds: SUPW
Curiosity in minds and twinkle in eyes; that exactly how I found each of my 40 prodigies on 22nd October when they came in all set to learn about cells from me. Trust me, I learnt much more from than they did from me! Their attention span lasted forever which really amazed me. Their smiles and friendliness will always be remembered by me. The students of a nearby Govt. School were my source of inspiration during my SUPW.
My lesson plan was to give them a set of worksheets and then gradually, referring to their course, I showed them modules on the facts about cells. Then I chose to go the manual way and because of time constraints I quickly told them about the cell organelles. But my presentation would have amounted to zilch if Chandrika ma’am and Nagashree ma’am wouldn’t have been there to explain to the children in their language and in an interesting manner according to their temperament. They were thrilled to see the diffusion and osmosis demonstrations in the classroom. Then I took them to the Biology lab to make them prepare onion peel slide and to observe them under a microscope so that their imagination could get a real for. The lab was well set before we reached by Chandrika ma’am and Nayak sir, which made the experiment so very convenient for us. This proved to be the most exciting session. Everyone was very responsive and excited.
After a demonstraton of the experiment by Chandrika ma’am, Nida , Dipali and I with all the other students were amused to perform the experiment ourselves and that too successfully. Just as everyone finished experimenting, the bio lab specimen grabbed the attention of all and they clustered around them. It was my pleasure to give them a closer look at them and tell them their names. They too taught me that the scorpion in kannada was called “chieru”(as I heard). Then sadly, the session had to end. So we all took then on a half-tour of the school and took them for snack. Then it was time to say goodbye. They waved to me graciously and I waved back to them with a happy heart and loads of inspiration.
